[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 498220, member: 7664"] Your son and mine sound similar in many ways. I'm just going to say what I think needs to be focused on re: the swing. He swears after getting off the swing-the swing is not the trigger-the getting off is the trigger and now we need to find out: WHY he needs to get off?, HOW they asking him to get off the swing?, WHAT activity comes right after the swing? For my son, he needs the calming effect of the swing- if he were on and had to get off for someone else=problem, if someone else were on it and he needed it= problem. I would not suggest removing the swing, as it is probably calming, but like you mentioned earlier; set boundaries for him and more importantly find a way to pair getting off the swing with a desired transitional activity.
